handle ten times as much manure as

THE BOARD OF HEALTH.
street Sprinkling Matters and
the Garbage Ordinance.

the Garbage Ordinance.
The Board of Health met yesterday
afternoon, Mayor Workman in the
chair, and Messers. Lowell, Collins
and Breed present.
The matter of amending the ordi-
nance relating to the collection of garb-
age and swill along the streets came
up. 1t had been intended to recon-
mend the amendment of the ordinance
so that no swill should be collected
until after 8 O'Clock in the evening,
but owing to a protest by numerous
storekeepers, it was decided yesterday
to make the commencement hour 8
p. NJ. The ordinance formerly read 6
o'clock p. NJ, but the wagons made a
practice OF collecting in the heart of
the city at that time and created an
almost intolerable nuisance by the
stencil arising therefrom. According
to the amendment offered swill can
only be collected between the hours OF
p. NJ. and A. NJ.
The matter OF the sprinkling of the
streets came up and Mayor Work
mans action was endorsed. 1t was
decided to order on four more carts,
making twenty-nine in all. 1t was de-
cided to recommend that the following
ungraded streets be sprinkled: Sew
enth street, west of Pearl, Washington
street between Main and Figueroa,
Ellis avenue, Scarf and Adams streets,
jefferson street to the city limits,
Buena Vista street west to the bridge,
DAILY and Workman streets, East Los
Angeles, Downey Avenue, San Pedro
street, Alameda street, Chavez street,
Mission street and Boyle Heights.
The petition of f. S. Miles was
recommended to be granted and the
Superintendent of Streets instructed
to locate the sprinkling hydrants.
1t was recommended that the Mayor
be authorized to locate hydrants
wherever he may think necessary.
Reported on the matter of the petit
ton OF j. f. Jackson that DAILY street
is already being sprinkled.
The petition of f. M. Hamilton ct
al, in reference to a milk dairy, was
referred to the Health Officer, with
instructions to abate the nuisance.
The matter of the lease of the City
Water Company in relation to its
negligence about erecting fire hydrants
was discussed, but the City Attorney
being absent, it was decided to lay
the matter over until his opinion can
be obtained.
The Board then adjourned.

He did not commit his conceptions to
record while as yet they were only
dreams, but they must have the ring
Of reality before they could become
an actual force on singers lips or or
gln's keys.
He was intensely earnest and
prayerful, and yet his cup OF happi-
ness was daily filed to the brim. 1t
is mistake to suppose that an ear
nest, praying soul is of necessity one
of perpetual grief and tears. Even
when the eye of the musician had
grown dim and the almond tree had
come into bloom, he was wont to ex-
claim. "Life is charming affair.""
He listened to the harpings of an
gels, and it was to be expected that
the song bird should sing in his soul.
Let the shadow come and the tear
fall in the heart where sense is its
world and the border line is so near
that pang or flash may end all ;
but let the sun of joyfulness stream in
where the Kings children have their
larger world and where no border line
exists that may limit or destroy the
souls home or the souls heaven.
Another feature of Haydn is that he
lived in the current life and thought of
his age.
He kept near the people and with
them, and so held the ear and heart
of his time.
Any great leader must keep in sight
of those whom he wishes to influence,
ii he lead and influence them.
Some one says OF Haydn's compo-
sitions: Surely in that are all the
nightingales of earth, deliciously war
bling"
Haydn, even more than Handel,
made an era in the history of music.
